Authentique Carefree

Hi Everyone!
Kathie here with a peek at the Authentique line "Carefree". The paper weight of Authentique is so substantial....I love working with it so much! I have two cards to share with you today one is using this months sketch and the other is a fun card where I did lots of fussy cutting! (FYI: I love saying "fussy cut")

I used some Die-namics dies as well as Distress Stickles to add some sparkle. I made the circle flowers by cutting five circles and distressing them and then using a brad to secure them. The Alpha Sheet from this line had lots of cute words so I put them together for the sentiment.

For the second card I distressed the edges of all the papers and I used brown chalk ink to bring out the edges of the paper. I also used a black Glaze Pen to doodle and make the dots on the flowers to give them some dimension. On this card I also used Distress Stickles to add some sparkle

!

Hope you enjoy these projects and I'll be back later in the month with some more projects with this paper line.
Hugs,
